It is known that the arrest Hope Udaltsova Drevin pictures saved from confiscation by giving them their own. They were first exhibited in Moscow in 1971
After an optimistic autobiography, I want to quote from the book of Catherine Drevin Hope Udaltsova M., 1997, in which the published diaries of Hope Udaltsova:
In the night of 16 to 17 January 1938, was arrested Alexander Drevin. He left without even putting on his leather coat, which was so still remained in the apartment, said Udaltsova: "Do not worry, I'll be back" - and vanished forever.
Diary N. Udaltsova January 18, 1938:
"What happened, what happened? Two days in a fog. Where to go, someone shouting? Tend innocent man. Save the man who never had nothing to do with any Western people as they arrived, nor with Latvians: Jakub only one, and then, when arrests among the lat. artists. Said that there is nothing to worry Drevin, never with anyone else was involved. And old parents, too, is nothing. What do I do what I do? I have one in the whole world, and no money, and where, to whom shall I go? All have turned away from me. Yesterday found the strength to go to Yakubu. He was shocked. He said not to tell anyone. And, perhaps, this fellow (who conducted the search and seizure) is not telling the truth for comfort. When nothing was found, and the protocol was drawn up, that's nothing, we sighed with relief, and suddenly: "You will have to go with me for a long time you do not delay." And I - with care:
- Do not worry, nothing is found, through two or three days he will return, do not worry.
- No, - I said - he was a Soviet man, threw home, parents, and now!
- Do not you think that this may be due to other, - said the assistant, and neither the left.
And now, I wrote a letter to Yezhov, and I was calm and clear: Drevin not guilty of anything, and an innocent person may be convicted "*
* The above-mentioned letter to Yezhov - one of a countless number of pardon, which Udaltsova writing until 1956 Hope Udaltsova not gone to the evacuation, she believed that Alexander Drevin, shot on Feb. 26, 1938, was alive.
